Bad Holiday Weather - Kit Time

 

 

At present I spend some days at the Belgium seaside

(and yes the weather is not so nice....rain, wind and hail...)

but so I have time to assemble some kits.

 

I have finished

 

3 boxes of Pryms snap-fasteners

each box is 1,5 x 2,3 x 0,5 cm

and each box contains 3 button cards.

I glued 36 breads on each card.....altogether 324 breads.

Kit by Michaela Stange

 

6 scented sachets for my haberdashery cabinet. I added some little cream bows.

Kit by artofmini

 

I have also assembled the little etagere. I will paint it later white.

Have a great day

A new project for my haberdashery shop...........

 

This week I was very busy with a birthday gift (I will post next week).

I have done also a x-mas ornament wreat for my sister-in-law.

I used plastic ornaments (it is safer).

 

Here is a tutorial for a x-mas wreat:

Maybe also an idea for my 1:12 x-mas shop....

 

And yes I found my little 1:144 sewing box kit. I bought it (4 years or so ago...)...I will use it for my 1:12 haberdashery shop.

A 1:144 haberdashery shop....

 

This week was also a very special week....problems with my car, my computer (the big one...now I use my laptop and also my circular sew (for my French house..)......

 

 

Have a great day

French House part 12 - Bedroom part 1 painting walls

 

 

Yesterday I painted my bedroom walls and the ceiling with the cream paint tester.

Of course I will distress them later....

 I had also some problems with my house. There is a big crack in the back wall (photo 2) and so I have to change my "wallpaper plan".

The solution is: no wallpaper for the sidewalls and only wallpaper for the back wall. I will do also wood panelling (not to much pink "Toile-de-Jouy" wallpaper for the wall because I have also rose bed linen!).

Have a great day

New Minis for my French House

 

I was shopping for my French house. I bought

2 rugs

(my house is only 19 cm deep- so they have a special measurement)

 4 stucco lion heads

(for the facade)

Susanne was so kind and sent me 2 little extras.

A ribbon and a lace card for my haberdashery shop

Thank you Susanne

I really like the rugs....because they looks so old perfect for my old French house!

 

Have a great day
